Walked in and there's a party seated. Great, love having a busy place to eat…read more Unfortunately, the party seated also had a dog. The dogs bed was in the middle of the table, and the dog was sitting there. In the middle of a restaurant. ON THE TABLE. Right THERE. Our 2 dogs were patiently waiting for us in the car. Like they should. Now, not wanting to eat in the dog pound we walked across the street and ate at the Carlisle. What's amazing to me is that there were multiple workers but no one had the common sense to say, hey, dogs need to wait outside or at least not on the table with the food. But that didn't happen. So we didnt happen to eat there.

The atmosphere was comfortable, with a pleasant crowd and a lot of laughing. We were greeted almost as soon as we walked in, which was great considering they were kinda busy already. Drinks came fast and so did the food. I had the bacon cheeseburger with curly fries. My husband got cheese curds, which I'd never had before, and the special of the day, which was a bbq bacon burger with regular fries. My food was amazing. It's been a long time since I've had a burger of this quality. The cheese curds came out fast and hot and were absolutely delicious. I had a bite of my husband's burger and it was good enough for me to consider maybe getting it next time. All of this food only cost $45, which is saying something these days. We will definitely be back.

I'm more than happy to support a small business in my town. I've tried both the chicken burger and a bacon cheeseburger. Both were delicious. The only issue I had, and it's a personal preference, was that there was so much sauce on the chicken burger. Other than that, everything was fabulous, fresh, and scrumptious. I forgot to take a picture but I'll post one the next time I go there......so next week probably lol

We came here for lunch before visiting the park, and it was a solid meal with a view. Located in small town Toutle, we had planned to visit Fire Mountain Grill beforehand while planning our Mt. St. Helens weekend trip, which I recommend you do too if you're planning to visit the park. It's a stand alone restaurant in the woods that overlooks Toutle River and is in a house, which is part of its charm! Forget phone service, but you'll enjoy being out in the wilderness. We visited on a Saturday for lunch and the place was busy. We learned that when we visited it was the last Saturday before they were closing for the season, which they do when the weather gets colder. I'm sure they must get a lot of their business from tourists on their way or from Mt. St. Helens. In fact, after we ate here, we spotted many of the same patrons from here at the Johnson Ridge Observatory. The best seat in the house is on the back deck, which looks out to the river and woods. My partner and I both ordered a burger and shared their famous berry cobbler, which you must save room for! Every table was getting the cobbler and after eating it, I can see why. It was delicious, with the warm mixed berry concoction, with a crumbly surface and a big scoop of vanilla ice cream on top. NOMS! The burgers were solid, too, but not my favorite item here after having the cobbler. I recommend if you're planning a trip out to Mt. St. Helens to visit Fire Mountain Grill for a meal. Just remember that it closes for the cold season.
